I tested fc9 on a 4400+ amd with 4gb ram with a M2V motherboard that included the Attansic Gigabit Ethernet card. Also included in the test system was a ATI Tech RV515 Radeon X1300 (Secondary) < Whatever that means. There was also Promise ATA 133 Card attached to two Seagate 160Gb hard drives. The two IDE slots on the board where also attached to the a pair of identical 160Gb Seagates. There were also 3 Marvel SATA connectors that were unused. and a spare ST-LAB PATA ITE8212 ATA/133 card that I'm not sure could have been used as part of a raid array but could have been used for two more masters. Overall the install went well and raid was easily configured. The system ran well enough.

I shut off a bunch of services and I had a very stable system. No error messages or pop ups from packagekit or otherwise. It felt right running it right from the install and I only ever crashed out once when using gtop. The graphics where very sharp and wavy off the get go in gnome and I had to reduce screen resolution alot until I started using KDE then everything looked and felt right. I hope you processed the smolt log for the machine and the hardware. Testing is over for this machine and despite centos not having the new Attansic ethernet driver I have it up and running on centos 5 now. The hdparm results above where from centos while copying the entire mysql directory tree over to her and also the entire web root (a lack lustre 750000 files under an hour more or less). It was pretty much the same with fc9. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
